摘要: Pleistocene molluscan shells from the marine deposits of southern California were dated by uranium-series disequilibrium method. The closed system ages calculated measured Th230/U234 and Pa231/U235 activity ratios. Because discordances found between Th230 Pa231 many shell samples analyzed, it was assumed that do not usually form an ideal system. A mathematical solution for open model can compensate deviation a sample is proposed. average first terrace at San Pedro Palos Verdes Hills Dume C Point to be near 85,000, 105,000, 130,000 years, respectively.
